I think it was joke on pic 1 and 20 - never saw militia (police) car on ZAZ platform. Usually it is Zhiguli in cities and UAZ (seen on pic 3) in the country. UAZ rather good for cross country. Plan was to start UAZ sales in US about 15-12 years ago but it was not realized. On pic 2 are firetruck for country use. No tall buildings in there. Firetruck for cities are on very first photo.

As to buses in winter, those actually were quite cozy. The has powerful heating system, but no A/C at all. So in the summer, especially in hotter parts of USSR those were not comfortable. But I survived. 8-). +40C and you climb on back seat right on top of very hot engine. Nice and warrrm!
